I didn't feel like this commit message made it easier for me to
understand, because I interpreted words differently than you intended.
Using "may end up" makes it sound like it's unexpected behavior. Also
the use of "copies" implies to me it's doing a copy operation. I would
rephrase it to something like:

  When finishing the current section some index records might be written
  for the section to the table. The logic to do so is essentially
  duplicated from what we already have in `writer_add_record()`, making
  this more complicated than it really has to be.

Other than that, I don't have any comments about this patch series.
